At 1,000 meters above sea-level, Berjaya Hills (formerly known as Bukit Tinggi) is the latest highland escape in Pahang, a mere 45 mintues drive away from Kuala Lumpur.
The entire place is a concept resort-township brimming with recreational and cultural attractions. In addition, Berjaya Hills is set among rugged hills and lush mountains, a perfect getaway for nature-lovers.
Families and friends should head to Berjaya Hills to enjoy the entertainment, recreational and dining opportunities listed below.
Colmar Tropicale
Inspired by the original Colmar Tropicale village in France, Berjaya Hills version is like a piece for French soil in Malaysia – a postcard picture come alive!
Along with the French-themed resort that has 260 rooms, Colmar Tropicale will allow you to sample all things French, such as pizza and pastries from La Flamme Sidewalk Deli, fine dining at La Cigogne, cigars and wine at Le Vin and French bread from La Boulangerie bakery.
Frequent street performances also take place in the Colmar Square, a cobblestone central courtyard surrounded by French-inspired buildings.
Japanese Village
The first of its kind outside Japan, the Berjaya Hills Japanese Village is elegantly built to resemble a picturesque Japanese garden complete with marble footpath, waterfall, koi pond and tea house.
Here, visitors can take part in an authentic Japanese tea ceremony or enjoy total relaxation at Tatami Spa.
Botanical Garden
The Botanical Garden is a 4-acre park with a 1 km walkway that allows you to enjoy the sights and sounds of a tropical highland forest.
There are plenty of viewing decks for you to snap pictures of the forests and also the chance to view horticultural experiments conducted here – pears, apples and seven species of strawberries!
Berjaya Hills Golf and Country Club Suite
An 18-hole golf course with panoramic views and green plains awaits avid golfers in Berjaya Hills.
Golfers will enjoy the cool surroundings and misty landscapes along with a view of the French villages. The club is also a great place to host seminars and meetings as well as a stay for vacation.
French Chateau
Modelled after the Haut-Koenigsbourg medieval castle in the Vosges hills of Alsace, the French chateau has all the delights of 18th century French culture and modern facilities, including a French fine dining restaurant, wine cellar, health spa, mineral bath, pools and more.
